Hello Rev,
My name is Chris and here is a brief entry of me entering the E30 scene.
When entering the the E30 scene I've always had 4 options I was looking for when searching for my first e30. Those were, it had to be a 5 speed/cabrio/low mileage/later model. Luckily after a year of patience and searching I found a 1992 325i vert with 73k original documented miles in Farmingdale,NY at a used car dealership. This car only had 1 owner and it was the car dealership owner's grandfather which, he had taken care of it for most of its time until he left the E30 sitting in the garage for about a year. Overall, it seemed pretty clean for its age in my opinion at the time and everything on the car functioned properly and body had little rust with good original paint (except for torn top/blown top motor) :(. So a bit of price haggling and paper work that same day I purchased it and drove it home:). After enjoying driving this car back home I knew from this point on that this would be one of my favorite cars to own. Therefore, I was eager to begin modifying it cosmetically and performing typical maintenance work.
So Here are pictures from when I bought it to working on it then bringing it to shows to working on it some more and then catastrophe.
Time for some new Temp sensors
ICV definitely needed to be changed.
